I don't mind the "reversed" seat post buisness, on older bikes especially some with longish wheel base, it was not uncommun...
Don't know what wheel you have there but they look nice, and, I could be wrong, possibly overspec for the bike?
I would not invest too much if you intend to keep the frame (a brooks with titanium rails would be a bit too much).
Otherwise, it could be a start of an ongoing build... Nice wheels already, then a nice brooks like recommended above, I agree too with the tyre suggestion, I had these, they are really good, better crankset, etc... then ultimately, you will come accross a nice vintage frame with a better pedigree... that could be a plan.
Nothing wrong with your frame, but choice of parts should be consistant with what it is...
